"We were put under pressure in the first 10 minutes but, once we scored the first goal, I thought we were different class. We can't rely on anyone's help, so we will just carry on the way we do."
"We started very well but we conceded on the counter attack. At that point, it's more difficult because United have champions in their squad. They slowed the tempo down and kept possession."

"I’m not concerned about anyone else, the other teams, but yes I could have imagined taking as many points as we have and go on that pitch and wear that shirt, with the quality they have got they must be confident we can win a football game. "First 10 minutes we were poor, we did not pay the way we should have, but yes of course the conditions were difficult, the wind, but we made it more difficult by playing into their hands with the press, gave them some counter attacks. After 2-0 I felt in control and second half I thought we played really, really well compared to the Leicester one. I thought Ander and Nemanja controlled the midfield, we let Paul float around and it was a fantastic performance second half."
"He [Paul] is doing well, he is enjoying himself, he is playing well, his energy is high so that was one of the questions I asked myself; should I play him or should I not because there is a big game coming up on Tuesday, but I think the intention shows when you play Paul and everyone knew that we needed to take this game seriously."
"I didn’t think about [the Cristiano Ronaldo goal at Fulham in 2007] but Anthony [Martial] in free flow is a great sight. His balance is fantastic, he is very strong, he shrugs defenders off and he is that quick and he is a very, very good finisher and I think that goal won us the game. I think we were in complete control after that."
"They [Jones and Smalling] did well the two of them. We must remember Chris hasn’t played for over two months and it was an absolutely fantastic performance from him. He has worked hard to get back, the recovery, he has been on his own up and down that touchline running with the physios and I was never in doubt he was going to play today because this was the game that I had earmarked for him."
"The fans are like that always it is fantastic. We knew coming here we always have the fans behind that goal and it is just a shame we couldn’t play like we did in the second half." * Speaking to MUTV
